I believe he was asking if anybody knew where to find it, not where you supposedly work and how that relates to why you can't find it. 

Anyway, here is a link to the post where you can download it. Download FDNY_Tone.wav

I'm sure they did. 

Little odd that somebody who's trying to prove a point won't upload the only piece evidence necessary to prove his point correct and everybody against him wrong. Further reason for all of us to believe none of this is true. 

Don't even know why I'm getting into this with you. Until you prove yourself, we all know that you are full of BS. 

I don't know why you think I'm joking, I'm just as serious as you are. 

I said I wrote today's date on it to prove it was legit and not photoshopped or anything. That was written back in 1935.

Its okay I have a recording from the 40's with the claim and no country claimed that territory then or now. And that paper says todays date in which you can't claim it after 1961 while the ATS is in force. Funny isn't it?

Oh so you do have something to prove it to us? Go ahead and upload it then. I uploaded my proof, you upload yours. 

Its alright you can say anything you want. The claim came from my Great Grandfather in 1936, who in turn passed away and gave the claim to his son who passed away and handed it down to me. Is there any documentation? No why would there be? Look at the native american's that have been here before America was America do they all have documentation from back then no. Its a family thing. So don't ask for documentation, even though it would help I don't have it. And the whole peter griffin thing would never happen. Every piece of land inside the lower 48, puerto rico, Alaska, and Hawaii and whatever else is all apart of the USA there is no house in the US that wouldn't be a apart of the US. And my claim is valid, I already spoke with an International Law Firm near my house. 

No documentation whatsoever? Well then...

Wait, I just remembered. My great grandfather claimed that land in 1935, who passed it on to his son who passed it on to me, there's even documentation on it! Crazy coincidence, guess it's mine now. I updated the document to my name and wrote in todays date to prove it's legit.

My land now, sorry. Here's the document to prove it:

I spent a good 5-10 minutes trying to come up with witty, funny, and even serious replies to this but I'm actually incapable of that. So here's my best effort at a serious reply...

What makes you think you can claim that portion of Antarctica, that is already being used for research by various countries?

And because I know all you're going to do is say the same thing and provide the same link you've been giving us, I'll just post my follow up question now...

What possibly makes you think you are the first/only person in 101 years, (The land was first spotted in 1902) to try and "claim" that land? 

That Family Guy episode when the Griffin property is discovered to be not on any map and not part of the country, and in turn is claimed as "Petoria" by Peter Griffin has a more legitimate, believable story than this... 

Wouldn't even put on the lights for a broken leg.

My mentality for that, coming from a more urban/city style department is if they're calling 911, it's an emergency. Could be dispatched as a broken leg, but you truly do not know what it is until you get there. If it is indeed just a normal, everyday, non severe broken leg, well then you just made the turn around time quicker and made the ambulance available for true emergencies faster than if lights and sirens were not used. If the bone's sticking out and he's losing blood fast, good thing you used lights and sirens. 

Everybody disagrees with me on that, but that's how I operate. In my almost 10 years of being an EMT and driving ambulances, I've never once been in an accident while responding or transporting with lights and sirens. Just have to be smart with using them, know what you're doing, and drive under the mentality that everybody else on the road has no idea how to drive, (Most people do drive about 10x worse when there's lights and sirens nearby anyway).

Where did you hear that? Safety of yourself is number 1, safety of your partner is number 2. Meaning you drive to any scene, regardless of age or nature, safely. Urgently, but safely. And you always stop, or at least slow down before going through red lights. I'd drive to an unconscious infant the same way I would for a middle aged person with trouble breathing, or a teenager with a broken leg.

You can't help anyone if you get hurt on the way. 

Graal bot where did you think of that lol!

 

You're an ECP (Basically, a nurse who provides hospital care at the home) going to check on a old lady. However, you get there only to realize she's been dead for god knows how long and she is clearly visible in her dining room slumped over her Pot Noodle. You're about to call for police assistance when a mother comes running out of the house screaming 'Holy **** there is a dog in my house attacking my husband' You can hear the dog tearing into the man. You're also male, and this man will probably die in a few minutes without medical aid and someone neutralizing the dog.

 

whaddya do

Scene isn't safe so I'm not going anywhere near the house with the dog. Can't help anyone if you get injured yourself. Call police and advise of both situations. You sorta make it sound like this is all happening in the same house; if that's the case, then yeah not going anywhere near the house. If these are two different houses, then I'll go to the residence of my patient and look for any signs of obvious death (Any mortises) , then do whatever needs to be done there depending on signs of death. 

Honestly, being an EMT, I don't like those kinds of posts.

Is EMS underrated? In certain aspects it might be.

But myself, and I'm sure many others don't do what we do to look for recognition or to go "Yeah I save lives, I'm cool." We are not, or at least I am not in it for that. I do it because I enjoy it, and when people look forward to seeing you at what very well may be their worst point in life, it's a good feeling. I don't like to brag about my job or look for attention because of what I do. I get the job done, and if I can make someone's day or help better their quality of life from what it was when I first met them, or even save their life, then I've done my job right. 

But those kinds of posts I'm not a huge fan of, because it makes EMT's and Paramedics just look like a bunch of people looking for attention. If you truly enjoy your work as an EMT, you don't care how the public looks at you as long as you're satisfied with yourself, your work, and doing what you're doing to the best of your ability. 

If you become an EMT expecting attention and "fame", then you're certainly in the wrong line of work. 

Looks amazing! One quick question, though, why does your town police run ems, when they have the paramedics?

To add on to what was already explained, New Jersey has no municipal paramedics. So volunteer agencies and paid agencies covering either a town or a region cannot do anything ALS. Because of this, the state has 100% ALS coverage through various hospital run EMS agencies. For example Toms River has MONOC coverage as this mod shows, to explain the name MONOC originally (And I guess still does) mean "MONmouth-OCean" because those were at first the only counties they covered, but they're beginning to take over a lot including Union and Essex counties. Atlantic Ambulance runs medics in Morris and Union county, Trinitas Medics in parts of Union and Essex county (Particularly Elizabeth) and UMDNJ medics for Newark, Camden, and other parts of their respective counties. St Clare's in parts of Morris and Sussex counties. I think you've kinda got the idea by now.

It just depends on what company runs the hospitals systems (or the majority of the hospital systems) in the part of state you're in.

Newfoundland doesn't restrict light colors, especially blue, and is commonly seen on snow plows, contractors and utility vehicles.

BC volunteers not having lights can be better explained below.

The majority of studies I've seen show a complete disagreement with volunteer POV lights. In many rural settings, or settings where there would be volunteer response vehicles, there are very few traffic lights and major intersections. There's a volunteer fire department here that covers a semi-rural area. That area has two traffic light intersections. Realistically, few people EVER make a full stop at stop signs, and will do what is known as a "rolling stop." Also, most cops won't pull you over for anything less than 10 over the limit, which is usually the upper limit on emergency vehicles' speed. I'm not strongly opposed to it, but I will explain why I disagree with it.

• There is VERY few intersections, so a red light will not do anything that will be noticeable. Most studies show a speed of arrival of seconds or less faster, if at all for siren running POVs
  
• Many people driving POVs with sirens tend to think they're police cars, and will speed, blow intersections and do dangerous things. Trust me, I have seen it. The majority of wrecks involving Volunteer responders, including POVs as well as regular emergency vehicles, are POVs with sirens doing stupid things
  
• Insurance often freaks out and will wanna double or triple rates, as emergency vehicles have higher insurance rates than private vehicles
  
• A red light isn't a reward, it's a tool to respond. Anyone that thinks getting allowance to use it is a reward shouldn't be doing it.
  

And it's for those reasons I despise POV's. Too many people (Not saying everybody) that think just because they have the privilege to use lights, their car automatically becomes an emergency vehicle (And yes, I know in some states it does, and I don't know why). Honestly, if you wanna shorten response times instead of wasting hundreds or thousands of dollars on lights to turn your car into a pretend emergency vehicle, here's my proposal. Either the entire crew or maybe at least 2 people (Driver and an extra person) stay at the station in shifts 24/7. Those trucks go to the scene, people in their own cars go to the scene.

At this point I'm paid, the volunteer EMS organization I was with actually transitioned over to being paid recently after being combo volly and per diem for a while, but what my department did was make all crews stay at the building, or otherwise with their ambulance & crews. Want food? Take the ambulance & crew. Need to go shopping or stop at your house? Take the ambulance and crew or do it later. Don't need to worry about POV's or who's going to the scene and who's picking up the truck. We are also in an urban area, and are relatively buys, so that's part of why, but the important part is shortest response time possible, because your with your crew and ambulance the whole time. If you really wanna increase the chance of saving a life or lessen property damage, that's how it should be done, and how most if not all volunteer places should be operated.

New Jersey volly's can have a blue light. They must have a blue lens and the lamp can be no more than 51 candlepower. It can only be a strobe, halogen, incandescent light, or a combination of those. Must be placed in the center of the dashboard, or on the roof if it's a light bar type. Having a blue light is a privilege and DOES NOT make your car an emergency vehicle, and I like it that way despite many volunteers possessing blue lights seem to think otherwise. You can not speed, or disobey traffic laws. All laws must be followed, and if they are not, you're blue light privilege can be revoked and you will also be fined, and more than likely be suspended or forced to leave your department.

Do people follow all of those rules? Rarely.

Oh and chiefs or officers of volly squads/departments can have a red light and (I think) a siren in addition to the blue, but must follow the same rules.

3 americans die,and all the people go crazy...people die every day in syria,iraq,palestine and africa and nobody cares

Well considering that these attacks actually occurring, without being discovered and/or stopped are relatively rare in the US, and the type of attack, it was a shock to many, as with really any terrorism event.

Normally $60? I got that exact engine and the flag set together for about $15 straight from Code 3.

Anyway, here's my stuff. Please excuse the dust on some of it, I need to clean them off lol. Also excuse the bullet in front of 10 Truck. lol

10 Truck

Carson City Engine 3 (Got this and the flag set together for $15-$20)

Collectors Club Ladder Truck

FDNY Ladder 114 If you can't tell this was the Christmas truck one year.

Miami Rescue 26. First model I ever got if you can't tell by all the dust that's accumulated lol.

Two that I've also always wanted but was never able to get was the two San Diego models they had, one was an engine and the other was a ladder.

In addition to what everyone else is saying, and I could be totally wrong because I know nothing about game development, but the console version is scheduled to be released in Spring of next year. Obviously, this means the console version are at a point where they will be ready to be released in a few months, and I can think it can be assumed that the PC version is NOT ready to be released in the same amount as the console versions.

I'm a console owner, so I'm not affected, but do seriously want them to just rush through whatever's left to do with the PC version? Rushing is not good, because the final product will generally be a lower quality (At least in whatever aspects of it were rushed) and it's more likely to have problems, which all the PC owners who are currently complaining about it coming out later than the console, are only going to complain more about, and complain that they released the game before it was ready to.

Do you really want that? Put yourself in the shoe's of Rockstar Games and anybody else working on it, do you want to deal with that? Do you want to rush it, and deal with problems after release, or do you want to make sure the game is finished so there are minimal issues after release?

What are you going to do to contribute to the mod? You generally aren't going to get very much interest or people willing to help unless you can show some progress in the mod, and people at least want to know if you can do anything mainly because people may be willing to work on a mod with you, but nobody would be willing to make it for you.

I was at school when I started hearing about it. I went to the payphone to call my Mom and ask if she's heard from my Dad, because my Dad was going into NYC for business that day, at the World Trade Center. After the first tower collapsed, and my mom, brothers, and I still heard nothing from my Dad. My brothers and I left school to go home. Finally, hours later around 10pm, my dad finally came home. He was soaked, and just as emotional and scared as the rest of us.

Here's my Dad's story:

He arrived at the World Trade Center PATH train station. He got out with everyone else and there were security guards, police officers, etc, pushing everybody out, telling everyone to leave the building. There was also a smell of smoke and a haze throughout those bottom floors. He assumed nothing of it, just assumed maybe there was a small fire in one of the stores or something. But After he got to straight level, Fire trucks were starting to arrive so he could sort of care less (Like any other New York businessman).

He walked outside, looked back at the building where he saw the smoke and flames coming from the top floors. Again, he assumed very little, assumed it was just a fire. But then he began hearing people talking about a plane crash, when he heard a plane coming. He looked up with everyone else, and my Dad watched the second plane hit the second tower. That's when him and everybody else knew this wasn't an accident. He was either on the block, or within a few blocks as he heard what he describes as the "unforgettable" sound of bodies hitting the pavement; the people that jumped out of the towers. He was uptown a bit, just finding a way out because nobody could get in or out of manhattan; the bridges and train lines were shut down.

From a distance he watched both towers collapse. Towards the end of the day, he finally heard that train were running to Hoboken, NJ. He got on that train, then when he got to Hoboken, there were firefighters, cops, etc splitting everybody off the train up - People within a certain number of blocks of the World Trade Center, and people who weren't near it. Because my Dad was near it, he went to the line for the people near the WTC. At the end of that line was the Hoboken Fire Department, hosing down everybody in that line to get any debris and/or whatever may have come from anything, the dust, the smoke, the generally poor air quality. So they hosed down my Dad, and then my Dad got a taxi back home. Finally arriving home at 10pm; and me, my mom, my neighbors, and my brothers had never been so happy to see him.

Sadly, my next door neighbor wasn't so lucky; He worked in the same place as my Dad and was going to the same meeting as my Dad, except my neighbor didn't make it. My neighbor was killed along with one of my friend's parents.

Thats my 9/11 story.

I like it and use it to stay connected with distant friends or family. Especially friends from school who by now have all gone separate ways and are getting married and all that, it's cool to see what's going on now. I personally don't use it much, I don't play games or post much anymore. The few times I end in posts is people tagging me in pictures or statuses or check ins or whatever.

I like the concept of Facebook. I like using it, as I said, to stay connected with people I don't really see anymore.

its been a while everyone! any new update anyone? im 10th and lvl 80 on mw3 and 9th and lvl 34 in black ops. got a bunch of new games like saints row the third really good games. Any new recommendations for me?

I haven't been able to play PS3 much at all the past few months, but I liked Dead Island, that was really good. Might be worth checking out.

Actual I had another I idea. Maybe you could make a small portion (Like 2 or 3 streets) A dirt road with some older style buildings, but make it so cars don't drive on it, people just walk around, and it can be like Historic Old Town in San Diego with all the old buildings and museums and everything. You can drive through most of it in reality, but theres a small portion that's walking only, no cars.

Could also add a small them park near the beach at the bottom of the map like the real Belmont Park. Just trying to give some ideas based on how That area of San Diego actually is, haha. Station 21 pretty much covers Pacific Beach, parts of Mission Beach/Mission Bay, so that's the main area of the city I'm looking at to try and give ideas.

(I'll also be staying in Pacific Beach for a few days next week as I said, so I'll get you some pictures and some more ideas while I'm there!)

The shopping center is a good idea. Maybe a resort hotel type place with a pool and chairs, (There's one pretty close to Station 21 in San Diego). A few small parks. A small arena or stadium. Or maybe any room leftover with that stuff you can just fill up with lower to middle class houses or some shops. You could put some bigger houses along the beach with some hotels or motels. Maybe add a Pier? (Like Crystal Pier, also near Station 21).

You could also add a street along the right side of Station 21 that has a lot of shops and restaurants at the top half, then a lot of houses at the bottom half, could like the real Mission Boulevard in San Diego, then off of that have a few side streets running between that and a street along the highway that you could put some houses on.

At 20:30, 2 police cars were dispatched to a Motor Vehicle Accident, unknown on injuries.

"Central to Car 3, Car 9. Liberty Terrace and Chestnut street, MVA, unknown on injuries."

The 2 cars, along with a supervisor who was in the area, arrived on scene to find a two car MVA. One driver was out of the car, the other still inside. One officer talked to the driver outside while the other two talked to the driver still in the car, he reported having back pains, so the supervisor requested an ambulance.

"Central to EMS-2. Liberty Terrace and Chestnut Street, PD is out with an MVA, one driver reporting back pain."

EMS arrived on scene. One EMT took the jumpbag and talked to the driver while the other EMT got a backboard and the stretcher. The driver said he felt back and neck pain, and his door won't open due to damage.

The EMTs go to the passenger door on the other side and attempt to open it, luckily, it does. They lower the stretcher and have the driver slide over into the passenger seat, step out of the car, and lay on the backboard on top of the stretcher.

They strap the stretcher straps, and roll him back to the ambulance. One EMT stay in the ambulance with the patient to secure him properly to the backboard and to start getting information.

While the other EMT talks to the other driver, who only requires an ice pack for his hand. He Refuses Medical Attention and signs the sheet. The police supervisor also clears and goes back in service at this point.

The EMT returns to the ambulance, places the jumpbag back in the cabinet it belongs, and then they transport the patient with the back injury to the local hospital.

Both vehicles end up having to be towed. The second officer clears, and the remaining driver waits for a friend to give him a ride. He waits with the police officer who first arrived on scene, while he writes his report and makes sure the driver gets picked up by his friend and goes home safely.

((Pictures weren't great, but I hope you liked it! I may do some more in the future.))

2006 or 7 or 8 or something Dodge Charger. Like the one in the picture, but not my exact one. Mine has a Hemi engine, and all black tinted windows which are illegal here, but I keep them anyway lol.
